| Welcome to the Northern Chamber Orchestra |
|
"Nicholas Ward and his players combine polish, verve and a crucial sense of enjoyment" The Daily Telegraph |
The Northern Chamber Orchestra was formed in the 1960's and has gained a formidable reputation from its engaging and exciting concerts, tackling a wide range of repertoire from Corelli through to Stravinsky and the present day. The NCO is internationally renowned from its recordings, of which there are over forty. The members of the orchestra are distinguished chamber musicians who play as principals with other orchestras and regularly appear as soloists. The Northern Chamber Orchestra is proud to be 'Orchestra in Residence' at Manchester Metropolitan University and Blackburn Cathedral and for its long association with Buxton Festival.
| 'Under the leadership of Nicholas Ward … the NCO is now one of the best chamber orchestras in Britain… The vitality of the playing, with a lively ensemble, is a great tribute to the corporate talents of the players…’ |
